If i do an external redirect in exim, what MAIL FROM is used exim in smtp connection to an external server? example /etc/aliases: me: me@gmail.com example email: MAIL FROM <somebody@his.server> RCPT TO <me@my.server> my.server redirect it to gmail according to aliases: MAIL FROM <?????> RCPT TO <me@gmail.com> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overkill Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I'm not sure about exim, but it think it's common for <> to be used for forwarding. Because of this, some servers will not accept forwarded mail because of the null sender address. Is that what you are running into? One should be able to check the logs to see what indeed is being used as the sender address on forwarded messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
